Walmart locks up light bulbs and fuses for cars. I was standing around mashing the obviously broken button for 20 minutes before I left, drove 10 minutes further away from home to orielleys, where I had my light bulb within 5 minutes. From then on, I order online or I pay the premium at an auto parts store if I need it ASAP.
Considering how many are in disrepair, I'd say no.
Someone will think you're more refined if you don't watch a YouTube ad though, whether it's through ad blocker or premium, that's the comparison you should be making.
That doesn't even make sense. The earliest standups should be is when core hours start.
I still surf both. Unpopular, I know, but Lemmy does not yet have the super niche communities that barely exist on reddit.
Imo, it's about the same. Some subs have gotten worse, some have gotten better, but that's how it's always been.
Also, tap the three dots on videos you don't want to watch and select don't recommend channel or not interested.
Someone can knowingly be an idiot.
Holy crap, the amount of hate in here, and no actual description of what it does. It's essentially your normal home feed, but only the videos with thumbnails of the selected color. It's also way over at the right of the home feed filters, so it isn't like it's being shoved down your throats.
What is a handheld if it isn't a device that's used while holding it in your hands?
This is a weird mentality. Competition in the space is good, even if the current "default" thing is really good.
I'd agree that I see way too much Elon stuff on my lemmy feed. This one I'm more interested in than 99% of the others. Maybe it's just cause I'm a gear head, but I'll sure as heck take it over the 10 X (formerly known as Twitter) "news" articles that I scrolled past to get here. News in quotes because it is no longer news that X (more commonly known as Twitter) and its owner are dumb.
Or just use Revanced or Grayjay, both of which are ad free and support sponsor block. Revanced is still a bit more feature complete imo, but also more buggy on my device, and more of a hassle to update. The browser YouTube experience is so bad, ads or ad free.
